Learn how to properly fit the PreSonus StudioLive 24/32SX cover, avoid common mistakes, and keep your mixer protected for years.
Quick Answer
To protect your StudioLive 24 or 32SX mixer, use the official PreSonus StudioLive 24/32SX Cover, which is custom-made for a snug fit. Follow the steps below to install it correctly and avoid common mistakes.
Why a Custom Cover Matters
A dust cover is more than a cosmetic accessory. It prevents dust, spills, and accidental scratches from reaching faders, knobs, and screens. The StudioLive 24/32SX Cover is tailored to fit the StudioLive SE 24, StudioLive 24, and StudioLive 32SX, ensuring full coverage without loose fabric that can snag or shift.
Using a non-custom cover might leave parts exposed or require constant adjustment. The official cover is a simple, affordable way to keep your investment looking and performing like new.
Step-by-Step Installation
- Prepare the mixer: Ensure the mixer is powered off and unplugged. Remove any cables, mics, or accessories that might snag the cover. Let the surface cool if it has been running. A clean, cool mixer prevents dust trapped under the cover and avoids heat buildup.
- Position the cover: Hold the cover open and drape it over the top of the mixer. Align the edges so the cover hangs evenly over the sides and front. The cover is designed to fit snugly, so adjust until it sits flush. Check that the cover is not twisted or stretched—this prevents uneven wear.
- Smooth and secure: Gently press the cover down over the faders and knobs, smoothing out any wrinkles. Ensure the cover fully covers the back panel and any protruding connectors. If the cover has an elastic hem, tuck it under the bottom edge for a secure hold. A wrinkle-free fit ensures full protection and a professional look.
